    The problem with the "just start NP until JA is ready" argument is obvious:  what happens if the Bills lose half or more of their games in the first 6-8 weeks behind NP?  THAT'S the time to push JA into the deep end?  Go in and there and salvage the season!!

     

    Why is that a better time to drop him in?  Wouldn't it be better to have him start (and possibly lose the same amount of games in that same period) week 1?  

     

    NP isn't Kurt Warner.  He's not Brett Favre, Tom Brady, Drew Brees.  You start your top 10 draft pick at QB, unless one of these types of vets is on the roster.

     

    I'd say that is a big issue with that as one of the things I've seen repeated over and over again on this board is how the first four games of this season are going to rough. Nathan Peterman with only two career starts is going to pull something off there?

    It is a close argument really. There is No proven formula. Each QB is as individual as another. Coachings staff and how they synergize with the Rookie.
     

    Its sound small and selfish

     I don't want Allen to get physically mauled and injured, or mentally and emotionally broken from having  very very poor blocking and WRs who cannot come free soon enough if at all.

    Yikes.
    I would prefer they sacrifice the guy they paid to come on board AJ M. sorry kid.
    By that time they should know where Allen is. and still have Peterman if another sacrifice is needed.

    The problem I see with that is they already wanted to see him against starters in Pre Season game 3 how else are they to gauge his readiness than to play him.

    I agree except I really don't see where it became clear that NP gives the Bills the best chance to win beginning week 1.

     

    Backup doing backup stuff.

    I'm not saying that's accurate so much as that is the argument being made. I was mostly making the point that whatever short term gains you might get from not starting Allen might not be greater than the gains you get further into the season with Allen.

    Fine.  Go call Kurt Warner and see if he's available.

     

    At this point, Peterman isn't even Warner the grocery bagger.

    Yeah there is probably a difference between sitting behind Peterman who has only started 2 games and Kurt Warner who's won a Super Bowl.

     

    So looking at this whole argument the idea is that initially Peterman gives you a better chance to win in early games but Allen won't develop as quickly. Alternatively starting Allen will have lower chances of winning initially while he'll develop quicker.

     

    So my thoughts on this are the whole point is to win that last game in February and the more Allen develops the better the chances of that. So I guess the question comes down to for me whether Allen has worse odds than Peterman of winning for so long that the Bills get disqualified from the Playoffs otherwise he should probably start.

    People question the Bible, oh it's just an ancient myth blah blah blah. Let me say this, if this doesn't prove the existence of Satan and his demons, I don't know what does. It's not all mental health impairments, there is a spiritual battle going on inside these shooters. I'm praying for all those who are involved.

    I very much disagree with this. Not getting into the Mental Illness thing but people bare the weight of their actions.

    I'm curious to see how Shady plays.  He's used to running into brick walls as defenses stacked the box against Tyrod, Peterman and McCarron.  Last week when Allen came in, the Browns were forced to ease up and cover a lot more of the field out of respect for his arm.  It'll be interesting to see if that opens up things for McCoy.

    Doesn't seem like your going to get much of answer tonight I don't think he's playing.

    i was trying to convince you that it did not matter who the quarterback was for leadership because it was NOT a thing they could have done  , under the same circumstances . i apparently failed trying to explain it to you. Go off on another tirade if you want , i'm done answering your posts.

    I would like to think that another Quarterback would of come to the conclusion to take a sack before getting 5 interceptions.
